The company is aiming for it to grow to more than 110 within the next 12 months.

Managing director Hilary Stephenson said: "Our successes over the past year have paved the way to several exciting new opportunities, as well as allowing us to further expand our brilliant delivery team.

"An uptake in demand for capability in content strategy and service design has led to an exciting influx of talent in these areas.

"Our overall design group now includes specialist teams in user research, content design, interaction design, service design and product management, and this has been one of the most noteworthy changes of the year."
